Whether you’re a seasoned veteran, are attending the NFDA Advocacy Summit for the first time, or just want to see what the Summit is all about, you'll benefit from reviewing the Summit webinar series we've prepared for you! Learn about what you can expect and educate yourself about the legislation we'll be advocating for this year:

Know Before You Go

The BRAVE Act: Meet Bob & Bill

The BRAVE Act, H.R. 497/S.598, will ensure that veterans are treated equally based on their service, not their circumstances at time of death, and seeks to update veteran burial benefits, which have not kept pace with the rate of inflation and burial expenses.

Navigating D.C

Consensual Donation & Research Integrity Act

The CDRI Act, H.R. 1835, seeks to regulate the largely unregulated non-transplant body and tissue donation industry by establishing minimum standards for registration, record-keeping, labeling, packaging, and disposition requirements for the acquisition or transfer of human bodies or body parts.
